Weight loss harmoniously - Ayurveda recipes

Overweight is a very common problem. It is based on a variety of reasons, including low physical activity, regular use of high-calorie concentrated, saturated with synthetic preservatives and dyes of food, chronic diseases.

The modern view of specialists on this problem is often such that it is possible to get rid of extra pounds only with the help of all kinds of hungry diets and preparations based on the so-called fat burners. In many countries, institutes and clinics are being created, whose activities are aimed at developing various diets, legions of scientists are fighting to create new drugs for weight loss. However, following most dietary methods does not give the desired long-term results. Not to mention the fact that often experiments in this area cause serious damage to health.

It should be noted that as a result of very popular recently hungry diets, in almost all cases, the effect develops, in which eventually a person gains even more weight than before starvation. In addition, as a result of starvation, endotoxins accumulated by the body are released into the blood faster, poisoning it, and not excreted by the body at all. This was known in ancient times, and this material is very detailed in the Vedas.

Ayurveda, as a system with serious experience in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with overweight, offers its recommendations for safe weight loss and correction.

Ayurveda is on the side of effective and at the same time gradual methods of eliminating excess weight. Moreover, in Ayurveda, too fast weight gain or weight loss is seen as a symptom of specific diseases.

Nutrition according to Ayurveda is a great art, where every food product is a medicine, if it is used in accordance with the knowledge of the mechanism of action on the body, properly prepared and taken in the required quantity.

The true causes of obesity are the “abundance of food” in the human mind. In other words, people attach too much importance to food. Change for the better happens when a person says goodbye to boredom, self-loathing because of an imaginary inability to change. It is the process of personality transformation that leads to automatic weight normalization (!).

So, let’s talk about the specific actions of a person who wants to normalize their weight. The first step is to change the way you eat.

In the process of reducing and correcting weight, it is necessary to refrain from:

fried dishes and fast food;
dishes from red meat (pork, beef, lamb); dishes from fatty poultry (duck, goose), which are better replaced with chicken and fish, before eating which you must remove the skin;
confectionery products and in general from dishes made from refined white flour and white sugar (instead of sugar in drinks as a useful natural sweetener, you can put stevia leaves);
products with a strong sour and salty taste (oaky foods, sauces, smoked foods and canned foods);
alcohol and caffeinated beverages, artificial tonics (such as Coca-Cola).

Food should be as natural as possible: fresh vegetables, fruits by season, leafy greens; nuts, honey - in small quantities; foods rich in natural dietary fiber (for example, agar-agar, Isabgol); whole grain cereals. The transition to a vegetarian diet, or limited consumption of animal food (fish and seafood, poultry, milk, eggs) up to 1-3 times a week is welcome.

The breakdown of fat is possible only with an optimal digestive process. Weakened digestion is perfectly activated by various spices (paprika, various types of peppers, cumin, anise, nutmeg, clove, asafetida, etc.).

It is very important to thoroughly chew food (especially carbohydrate). At the same time, it is possible to get maximum pleasure and benefit from a minimum amount of food.

Any cold food and drink should be excluded from the diet, i.e. you can not eat anything directly from the refrigerator.

It is important to eat food while it is warm and fresh. Reheated and canned food forms toxins in the body.

It is most reasonable to replace ordinary salt (NaCl) with a special mixture with a reduced sodium content (Na) (for example, the so-called black salt), since it is sodium that contributes to an increase in body weight due to water retention in body tissues.

Warm water, herbal teas (for example, an infusion of a mixture of fennel, coriander and cumin in equal parts) help reduce the amount of fat deposits and contribute to the removal of endotoxins (ames) from the intestine. Very effectively removes the toxins of masala tea.

It is even better to drink warm water with lemon, honey and a pinch of ground black pepper or 1/2 tsp. dry ground ginger in the form of a thirst-quenching drink during the day. If you are interested in losing weight, drink this drink before eating.

The amount of food taken at a time should be equal to the amount that is placed in two folded palms. Overeating gradually stretches the stomach and therefore, to feel full, you will need more food than the body actually needs.

Do not sleep for two hours after eating: it dulls the mind and disrupts the processes in the digestive system.

Before bed, try not to eat food with sour and salty tastes.

Food should be prepared with love. Food, especially cooked on fire, like a sponge absorbs the emotions of the one who prepares it. Avoid eating food prepared by sick, irritated, lowly people.

You can not start eating with any negative emotions. Do not eat if you are in anger, irritation, fear, hatred or envy; food eaten at this time will be poisonous.

Any products that have a bitter and astringent taste can reduce weight, destroying fats and toxins.
